While installing IE8, the installer failed to check for malware and did not install IE8, reporting that a required update can not be installed and asking it to be downloaded manually. After downloading this update, KB932823, it was not installed since a newer version of this file is already installed.I have Windows XP with SP3.

I've installed IE8 successfully but I've searched my computer and there's no way to open the darn thing. There's no program link at all, even in Program Files/Internet explorer. Nothing on my desktop or start menu either. Driving me insane because firefox only works on my windows xp account for some reason and my mum wants to be able to use the net too.

I had the same problem. I had IE7 and installed IE8. IE8 caused a lot of problems, so I used system restore. I was back to IE7 but it was not functioning properly. I had to downgrade to IE6 and then reinstall IE7. Its all back to normal. What a pain

first goto the control panel to uninstall the IE8,
then click on the add/remove program then find the windows internet explorer 8 uninstall it by clicking the remove button.
after uninstalling the IE8 restart the system
then check the wether the internet explorer come the 6 version or 7, if it is 6 install the IE7

go to control panel from start menu and then go to programs and features. under programs and features look for windows IE 8. and click on that and uninstall.
or other wise if you don't see it there click on show all installed updates on top left corner. then under installed update lists fine windows IE 8. and uninstall them all. it will prompt to restart coimputer. restart computer you will get windows IE 7.

go to cnet.com and download trojan remover. install it and run it. it will fix everything and restore things to it's rightfull location. when you finish delete it. i recommend IE7 it is better because it has phisling filter. IE8 cause alot of problems for most pc like slow running pc page not displaying. ie8 not a good one ie7 very good

basically your ie8 uninstallation is bad...try and see if you can get an ie8 uninstallation toolkit at microsoft.com to uninstall ie8 properly. Else, you might have to reinstall ie7 after uninstalling ie8.. this same problem persisted when micorosft released ie7 and i was supporting ie7 when released. so take my word. happens with all ie beta versions..
